BLINDS WIDE OPEN -day 80 I'm Spent

Two friends for many years parting ways and parting lives. Lots of that going on out there. Stuck in the middle doing a job, wanting to inspire, comfort and encourage but tasked to sell a home and not to choose sides. Real estate is not always easy and fun, in fact, it can be a highly charged and an emotionally exhausting job. Popping up at 2 or 3 in the morning, worried if you got it all right, wondering if the seller has secured a place to go or if the buyer will perform. I rest in the fact that the task was completed, the home closed and new paths may begin but I still think of my friends. I remember a few weeks back on the blog, when we posted that adorable photo of the baby smiling and saying something to the effect that this is how we want all our clients to look like after they close escrow. Unfortunately, in some circumstances, those smiles will never come and no celebration will occur.

This is Dave, from The McLaughlin Group, keeping it real in real estate!
